A lot of their constituency want the properties they own to go up in value. Or at least not down, which risks negative equity.

I cannot think of a scenario that this is legitimately solving a problem that couldn't be solved about 1000x cheaper and with less environmental damage.

STAR. For every question try to give a situation, task, action and result which came from you personally. E.g. situation, someone was manually copying data from an online portal every month. As a task, you're asked to write some code which scrapes an API, and you defined the task via docs and planned tests. Then as an action you worked on it for a few days, and the result was the company didn't need to manually spend a few days per month doing it, freeing up people to do more exciting things.

It shows you understand the problem and know how to go about solving it in a professional way.

One man controlling access to a sizable percentage of the world's internet access doesn't solve much.
